Yahweh continues to describe Eliakim, who will replace Shebna in the king's palace.

# I will fasten him, a peg in a secure place

Yahweh causing Eliakim's authority to be strong and secure in the king's palace is spoken of as if Eliakim were a peg and Yahweh will set him firmly in the palace wall. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])
